Hiya,

I know Aberdeen a little bit and I'm pretty sure this isn't a parish but we are drawing a blank I'm afraid. Can you give us some more info? What context have you seen this in - it looks like a mis-translation somehow? Could BRERVERY be BREWERY?

Cheers,
Pam

Well Pam your worth a PINT of double cream.

Thanks for looking.

I posted some imformation on roots just under this one,
Sheriffs at Old Machar info wanted.

Info was on a Baptism page I reicived from GRO office Edinburgh. If it was Brewery? they may have been workers houses or the owners house? onsite in 1815?.

This will be worth looking into. WE might have shares in it.
I found a Sheriffs & family who owned coachhouses & inns
in aberdeen about then.
If you want more info let me Know.
Many thanks PAM

I'll see if Edinburgh library hold Aberdeen census - I'm 95% sure they don't but it won't harm to check again.

Cheers,
Pam

Jim,

Try this link:
http://nls.uk/digitallibrary/map/townplans/aberdeen_sw.html
Then click on the bottom right hand corner section (marked LXXV15.8)of the grid. A new window will open and Devanha Brewery is there right next to the railway line. Zoom in for an even better view.

These online maps are from the National Library of Scotland and are wonderfully clear.

Jim,

off the topic of Devanha House, but on the McKinnons - my lot were from Campbeltown in Argyll about 1770 - 1850s/60s before they ended up in Leith, via the coastguard stations at Rattray Head, Dysart and Carnoustie, so I can't help you I'm afraid.

Hi M
Thank you for the reply, I would like to find out if
familys Sheriffs or Lyon had any think to do with the
house around 1815. I have a 1809 map the house
belongs to a Major Fisher, on a 1866-7 map the house
is called Devanha House, the house is still the same
shape, but with very large garden and no road outside
the front door. if i can contact you by e-mail let me know

kind regards Jim.S.
